Three Hollywood Girls is a 1930 American comedy film directed by Fatty Arbuckle (billed as William Goodrich)[1] and starring Leota Lane.[2][3]
The film had two reels.[4] It was released in December 1930 and described as an "unusual comedy"[1] in Daily Variety but another review found that it was "not so funny, ts slowtempoed and the majority of the cast read their lines in a stilted manner."[5]
The film has a sequel: Crashing Hollywood (1931).[6]
